Sounds like you're confused.

Make the users shell be /usr/libexec/sftp-server, make the change with
'vipw', change the last field to /usr/libexec/sftp-server.

Read man 5 passwd for more on the format of the passwd file.

This is not something I have tried myself, but it was what I got out of
the thread mentioned above.
